Vision and Values


We believe in being a borderless church with local church values. That means our fellowship has members from a wide ranging geographical area, the furthest being around 13 miles away. We also welcome those who fellowship with us online from anywhere. While we are growing numerically, we also wish to retain a local church feel. We want to be a place where you feel you can know others and be known. We are not striving for perfection, but want to encourage and develop people in the gifts that God has given them. Below are our vision and values which we hope encapsulate who we are and what we seek to do.
